my great great (etc...) grandfather was the first person to swim the english channel, Matthew Web. i think he was an admiral in the british navy.

i never met him, and the genetic talent of long distance swimming has not lasted the distance. i sink surfboards.

My son and a few of his mates started a Death Metal band last year here in sunny Karratha WA, but he had to drop out to go study at WA Accademy of performing arts in Perth.The band got a new Base player and this weekend they are performing in the triple j AWAL concert here in Karratha with The Grates and Powderfinger. Yep He is soooo pissed off at his chance to be famous or at least get his 15 minutes of fame,

I have a mate who reckons his sister is dating a guy that runs a fish and chip shop in Lismore who occasionally serves this lady that claims to have a friend who works with an elderly gentleman that says his youngest son was at UNI with a girl that is being tutored by a guy that possibly has seen Gary Sweet at Lismore Square Shopping Centre once.

me old mans famous, you might've 'erd of im

Oh, my old man's a dustman,
He wears a dustman's hat,
He wears cor-blimey trousers
And he lives in a council flat.
He looks a proper nana
In his great big hobnail boots,
He's got such a job to pull them up
That he calls 'em daisy roots.

I've met Charlie Dimmock at her Garden Centre in Romsey and yup she wasn't wearing a bra, so its not just to get the TV ratings up 😉

Met Frank Bruno before but guess I'm digressing a tad!
